BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CloudHealth®
Technologies, the pioneer in IT
service management for the cloud, announced today that Amtrak
is relying on the CloudHealth platform to ensure its tier one
applications are successfully running in the cloud, while reducing
costs. With CloudHealth, Amtrak is able to benefit from a holistic view
of all available cloud assets, resulting in the ability to be more
strategic when managing its cloud environment.

“Moving business-critical applications to the cloud was an important
move for us, given our focus on delivering system solutions in a
timelier manner, while cutting costs,” said Bill Duncan, director of EMS
technology services at Amtrak. “Making sense of the millions of rows of
data tied to our cloud assets presented a complex challenge. The
CloudHealth platform enabled us to benefit from a holistic view,
allowing us to easily manage our cloud environment.”

Amtrak relies on CloudHealth to ensure its business applications and
training environments run smoothly in the cloud, through managing
governance and controls functionality tied to infrastructure management
and provisioning. The company is also benefiting from a significant cost
savings based on CloudHealth’s cost management and cost allocation
reporting capabilities. As a result of Amtrak’s success with
CloudHealth, the company is moving forward with migrating additional
applications to the cloud.

“As large enterprises such as Amtrak increasingly move their
infrastructure and assets away from traditional data centers, it is
critical they have the strategic insight needed to effectively manage
their cloud ecosystem” said CloudHealth Technologies CEO and Co-founder
Dan Phillips. “CloudHealth delivers on this need like no other company -
transforming the way customers see, evaluate and manage the most complex
cloud environments.”
